This is not music, this is a trip!

8 months in fact pardon my tardiness but life gets very busy sometimes

Finally after 31 years of being a fan I finally saw Prince in concert in Manchester and he was amazing !! It put every other live show I've ever seen in perspective, the difference between seeing boys in bands/ MC's and an absolutely bonafied superstar !! Even at 56 still captivating, and the band, 3rd Eye Girl were amazing too !

SO being on a total Prince tip recently it made total sense to make a new Prince mix so get your purple dancing shoes on and....

Shut up, already....JAM !!

tracklist

Sexy Dancer

Thank you to Kerry Jordan ( @KerryEJordan )for the artwork at very short noticed, greatly appreciated

As a massive fan I've been wanting to do a Dilla tribute for a while but seeing as there are already so many out there, and lots of those done by people who are a lot better than this than me, I wanted to try and come up with a unique angle, something that hadn't been done before. So anyways, one day listening to Slum Village and Fall In Love comes on. Now this has always been one of my favourite Dilla beats, and I always hate when its over so later that day I decided to loop up the vocal and instrumental versions. This then isn't long enough, so I pull all the versions I've got together and yadda yadda yadda eventually I end up with this mix

The Beastie Boys are without a doubt one of my favourite groups of all time, any genre ! When i first came across them in 86/ 87 I immediately fell in love with their music, their style, their rhymes etc etc ( I think it was on a TV Show in the UK called The Tube the first time they aired the "Fight For Your Right" video ) I've been a massive fan ever since.

I've been meaning to do this mix for a while and started to put it together last year but when Adam Yauch passed away it didn't feel right, didn't want it to look like I was jumping on the bandwagon. Wanted to get it out in time for what would've been his 49th birthday on the 5th of August but unfortunately time was against me, but nonetheless this is my tribute to MCA and of course the other two Beasties the King Ad-Rock and M I K E to the D you go to see him and pay a fee.

It was hard to try and limit myself to the material I'd use but I had to have a cut off at some point to stop myself going insane trying to break down the tracklist. So I went for the era that meant the most to me personally, from 86 to 98 ( Licensed to Ill through Hello Nasty ) . Even then I've still missed some stuff off I would've liked to include, but these are "some" of my favourite B-Boys tunes.

So without foither ado, please enjoy 100 minutes of Hip Hop, Funk and Hardcore Punk. (Hey)Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you The Beastie Boys...

Hope all is well with you. Welcome to part 4 of the Condition of the Heart series (and maybe the last). Slight twist this time around. It's the music of Prince, be it written, produced, composed by or an artist he worked with and inspired, a bit like the Peez Nutz mix I made a few years ago (which I'll be uploading to my Mixcloud page very soon, see here >> http://www.mixcloud.com/AllyAl3000/). Thanks to Jehan of the Music Snobs for adding that extra bump to the tracks that were oh so low in the mix (If you don't know The Music Snobs search their podcast on itunes, you WON'T be disappointed, always a very entertaining listen, and big things happening for the show very soon). Also thank you Andy @ Forever Nowhere for the artwork at very short notice, see more here >> http://forevernowhere.tumblr.com/

It's been a while so I'm hitting you with two mixes today !! yes, TWO mixes

First up is a little party mix of mine. I have another podcast page that I haven't used in a while ( http://allyal.podomatic.com/ ) and a radio show of the same name ( Every Sunday 9-11PM UK Time 4-6 EST at http://uvr20.net/ ), this is one of my favourite mixes from the show so hopefully you'll enjoy it too ! Start that party right !

New mix from me as I continue my foray into my 90's music collection. Last time around we had the Wu Tang Clan (WU TANG, WU TANG), this time around it's the music of the Chemical Brothers. This is an uptempo mix. I wanted the selections to be the type of beats that would wake me up on Monday morning, and hopefully you'll enjoy them too. Predominantly B-sides and album tracks with the odd remix thrown in for good measure from the early part of their career (First two albums). Only one "hit" as such included but should be a mix the casual fan and anorak will enjoy. Be warned it bangs ! Not for the faint hearted

Would also like to say R.I.P. to Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys, been a huge fan of theirs since seeing the video for "Fight For Your Right...." in '86, a very sad loss. I had a Beasties podcast planned so hopefully i can get something together soon as a tribute

Other mixes done and ready to go are a Bootsy's Rubber Band mix and a new Prince one (for a change), so keep 'em peeled for those future episodes

Anywho, without foither ado, please enjoy

Hope all is well in your worlds. New mix from me. In the mid 90's this group dominated my headphones and speakers. I had a brief hiatus from hip hop and then was dragged back kicking and screaming by the Wu. Their sound was raw, they had crazy slang (that I still barely understand), they had samples from Kung Fu films and because there was so many of them they reminded me of the classic original Old Skool crews, I loved the f**k out of these dudes

Anyways, the mix is based around their debut release, and the first set of solo albums that followed from Method Man, ODB, Raekwon, Ghostface, GZA and one track from Cappadonna's album

hope all is well in your worlds. Yes its that time again, as Valentines approaches I bring you part 3 in the Condition of the Heart series. Little different this time around because I've thrown some of the proteges tracks in there so switch it up a little

As always thanks to Andy @ Forever Nowhere for the dope artwork, please see more here > http://forevernowhere.tumblr.com/. Also thank you Jehan for adding the dialogue over the intro and giving that tracks that needed it that extra bump.

so with out foither ado

please enjoy

(P.S. Keep them peeled on Monday because i'll be dropping another mix a pre Valentines kind of Anti-Valentines mix, intrigued ? Come back Monday and check it out )
